People use languages to communicate. Any language has its ways to express people’s minds. One of the ways in common is the use of idioms. An idiom is a group of words. It has a special meaning that is different from the usual meaning. For example, under the weather is an idiom meaning ill. So when people say “I’m under the weather," they are saying that they’re not feeling well. Another example, in all weathers means in all kinds of weather. So, “There are homeless people sleeping on the streets in all weathers" tells us that homeless people sleep on the streets no matter whether it is cold or hot. Different languages may have different ways to make idioms. For people who are learning a foreign language, idioms could cause misunderstandings and bring them endless headaches. On the other hand, if things are done right, idioms can also be a fun way of looking into a new culture and understanding how the people think and talk. Metaphor (比喻) is often used in idioms. Let’s read the following two examples: ● It makes my blood boil (煮沸) when people litter. ● The night was dark and quiet; my blood ran cold when I heard a strange noise outside at dark night. In neither situation above, our blood can reach the point so high or so low in temperature. Yet, with the situations the two sentences created, it is not difficult to work out the unhappy feelings of really angry in the first example and very afraid in the second. Of course, not all idioms are this easy to understand. When we come to idioms of a foreign language, a good dictionary of idioms is always suggested. 1.This passage tells us something about __________ in the English language. A.grammar B.writing C.reading D.idioms 2.If your brother breaks your computer, you can say to him, “__________.” A.I’m under the weather B.I’m there in all weathers C.You’ve made my blood boil D.My blood runs cold 3.What is the writer’s advice when you come to an expression like under the weather? A.We should look it up in a good idiom dictionary. B.We should try to express our minds with it. C.We should find an interesting way to learn it. D.We should create situations to guess its meaning.

Why Live Near the River? Imagine pioneers traveling west in the 1800s. In those days, it was hard to find running water and shops where to buy things. As time went by, most pioneers had to make their homes near a river so that they could get water easily. How did rivers help people live in the past? Back in the pioneer days, people grew their own food, caught their own fish, and collected their own water.1. People also used rivers as roads, traveling on boats. Traders shipped goods (货物) to people from other areas. 2. When building many factories right next to rivers for the water’s power to make machines work, some people choose to live near a river for working. They use the river to ship large goods, and some of them work at these factories where power factories provide electricity to homes and businesses.3. Who wouldn’t want to live near a river? Some people are nervous about living near rivers because rivers can cause floods (洪水). Every once in a while, floodwaters rise higher than a house, ruining (泡坏) many things in the house. 4.Such waste causes water to smell bad and pollutes the crops (庄稼) we eat. Water and crops in polluted areas can make people very sick. How do people decide where to live? 5.Rivers can provide jobs and fun activities in a beautiful place. However, those living by rivers should be willing to accept possible problems as well. A.Why do people live near rivers now? B.Why did people want to live near a river? C.Some factories put their waste into rivers. D.Staying close to a river was easy to get water for living. E.Some factories stop waste water from running into rivers. F.People who carry goods onto ships live near the river, too. G.People should think over the possible risks before deciding where to live.

Let’s say you are taking a walk along the road and you happen to see one or two waste bottes lying on the grass beside the road. What would you do? You may have different choices. Firstly, you can leave the bottles there as they are. It was not you who threw them away. Why should you do something about it? This is quite OK. Secondly, you can pick them up and throw them into a dustbin (垃圾箱). By doing this, you have walked a step further to help make our home clean. This action is a better choice. Thirdly, you might want to pick them up and give them to an old man or woman who collects waste for a living. If this is your choice, you have walked even further. You’re not only thinking about doing something for the environment, you’re also developing yourself to be a person who would think of others and help them. As for young kids, they may always have such a question: “When do I grow up?" Yes! When does a child grow up? And how can a kid know he or she has grown up? These are interesting questions. As for us, fifteen-year-olds, who are finishing middle school, we’re no longer younger children. We should know whether or not we have grown up. When we start to have a sense of offering a helping hand for a cleaner city and greener world, and when we have a loving heart to think more of others than of ourselves and are ready to help them, we can say that we have grown up. Remember: If we help others, others will help us. If we do our best for nature, nature will offer its best to us in return! 1.How did the writer start the passage? The writer did it by giving a(n) ________of daily life. 2.How many choices are there in the second paragraph? There are ________ choices. 3.What does it mean when you pick up the waste bottles and give them to someone else? It is a sign that you’re a ________ person that has grown up. 4.What does the underlined word “home" refer to in the second paragraph? It refers to the“________”we live in. 5.How did the writer support the main idea in the passage? The writer used ________ as an example to support the idea.
